Crazy hack.

Annabel's friend didn't come in the end, but we took Mayfly and Bonzo out for a hack anyway.

Both of them were pretty mental, neither of us had very good brakes! We did a hack which usually takes nearly an hour, but we were back in about half an hour. Bonnie was enjoying herself though, had a few excited bucks just to add to the fun. She really is loving life at the moment. Shame she is so fat. :P

I'm going to try to go ride her tomorrow, weather permitting. I've been walking to the yard this week to save bus fare, but I'm not doing it in the rain! I'm sure Bonzo won't mind if I don't though, more time to stuff herself with haylage and add to that lardy belly of hers!

Who we are

I'm Phoebe, I'm 16 and am currently in lower sixth and doing my A-levels. I'm a pretty fun-loving person, and I love my horsie dearly. :) Bonnie is an 11 year old, 15.1hh brown mare who I've owned since Easter 2006. Looking back, she probably wasn't ideal first horse material for me, when I first got her she was partial to the odd bucking fit (she bucked off her old owner causing her to break her ankle :S), was very unkeen about the idea of jumping and generally found life all a bit too scary. We've both learnt a lot from each other these past two years, and I hope we'll keep progressing together for many more years to come!
